We don’t win because we’re never satisfied with winning

[KiaKia]

Ever notice this?

When you’re winning, you don’t stop. You’re already up, but it still feels “not enough.” So you keep going, one more spin, one more bet, until the profit is gone.
But when you’re losing, you also don’t stop early. You only quit when the loss is already big, when it hurts.

So think about it.
We’re not satisfied with small wins, but somehow we only feel “done” after a big loss. Isn’t that backwards?

Maybe the real problem isn’t the casino. It’s how we handle winning and losing.

Sadly this is the biggest issue of gamblers, the greed is what will consumed them and they will never feel enough, many plan to be responsible and as they keep losing money they will start chasing but this part is different.

Some people gamble with money they can't afford to lose, if they get lucky and its not enough to cover what they have lost they will start to keep chasing.

The best advice for gambler is to be contented, and they should stay contented by risking only what they can afford to lose.

We can think about it as much as we like, you can include feelings as well, but that will not take you far. What counts is what we do in a certain moment... Forward or backward, there were too many situations when we did things the right way, and maybe even more situations where we made a mistake.

Maybe the real problem isn’t the casino. It’s how we handle winning and losing.

Well, I don't blame others for my mistakes... It's not cool.

Once greed kicks in then it wouldnt be that so easy for you to get out or be able to control it out but somewhat there are individuals who are that good on trying out to surpress their greed specially at the time that they are winning and minding that they should be withdrawing and securing those profits rather than on busting it again into the house on which this would be the best approach or wisest thing to do whenever you are that on the positive side on which make those winnings to be worth rather than on losing it back again including your capital or bankroll. Well, we are just that playing for the sake of fun and entertainment but once you do go into the path that your mind is that trying out to make more money via gambling and satisfaction isnt something that you can be able to handle on then that would be resulting into later disaster.

Always be wise when it comes to profit making on which it would be best that you do know on when to take profit and on when you would be stopping once you had bust up your entire bankroll for that day.

[Questat]

This is what I’d call greediness, because it makes you never feel content with a win, and at the same time, if you’re losing, you won’t stop until you try to win back your losses. That’s usually the reason why we lose so easily, because we become emotional and stop thinking clearly.

I think most of us have experienced this, especially in the early stages. But as time goes by, you mature through experience.
So I can honestly say this was me before, but today, I’m different.

Contentment should go both ways, you should be contented whether it’s how much you win or how much you lose. But if we’re being honest, most of us focus more on the losses, because we can’t deny that for many of us, losses happen more often than wins. And in a way, accepting that reality can actually help minimize the risk, so we don’t fall into addiction.

The problem starts when we win and then try to push for more. That’s where it usually goes wrong. Even if we end up breaking even, or worse, losing everything in the end, it leaves a different kind of mark. Because that money was already yours, it was already profit, but greed made you stay longer than you should have.

[TheUltraElite]

The problem has never been the casino. They never asked us to gamble, we chose to gamble on our free will even after knowing the risks.

The blame is always on the shoulders of the gambler, not the casino. If we are to be happy and content with what we already have and earn, gambling would not exist.

Just that little thought of being able to double your money by your luck takes a toll and we gamble leading to not doubling but halving of our existing cash.

[Mahiyammahi]

Yeah it's true , specially when you're playing slot games. I can feel your pain. When you have a positive PNL you don't feel scared to lose cause you already have a positive pnl so losing a bit ain't matter or won't effect you. But when you lost your winning recovering that amount brings the disaster or you lost all you've won.

I've also faced this situation lot's of time. Still sometimes I'm having issue to control myself so my motto rn is. Hitting the Jackpor(Scatter ) any positive PNL I withdraw the amount instantly no more bet that day.

Every gambler has their own standards for winning and losing, and it depends on the gambler's self-control. In fact, there are also gamblers who are satisfied with small wins, although we rarely encounter them, but I believe there are still gamblers who manage their gambling wisely. Greed and dissatisfaction are natural human traits. Everyone will adapt and try to manage their emotions so as not to continue being in loss.

Every gambler both the addicted one and the responsible one knows that there is nothing wrong with the casino but that rather, the challenge is with his ability to control his or her emotions and response to wins. if we are sincere enough to know that winning at a time is never a guarrantte that we will always win and based on that believe system we are able to grow into effective management of our wins and losses such that our emotion does not get the better of us, it will become easy to overcome anything that is associated with gambling addiction.

No matter how lucky you are per bet, don't feel entitled and make it look like you have figured everything out. stay disciplined and you will be alright and never frustrated in your gambling.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

Well, of a truth, I feel that gambling is designed in such a way that it always attract you to continue playing whether you are losing or winning. If you are losing, you have a different feeling to try recovering your losses and if you are winning, you also have a different thoughts to win more. It do happen to me sometimes when I'm gambling but I don't allow the thought to defeat my intention of gambling, once I win the money I'm satisfied with, I make withdrawal immediately, I don't spend it back at the casino.

It depends on the gambler, there are gamblers that are already satisfied with small wins and just stops it on that day.

While the others that are not yet filled and satisfied, they're not stopping because of greed. They want to win more but instead of getting what they want.

They're getting the losses that they deserve for not stopping when they've got enough already.

I don't agree with that, especially for me. To be honest, you are right, many do, because their thoughts are too big. That's why they expect big wins, not small earnings. However, for gamblers to win big, they have to bet more money. Because by betting with small amount of money, even if you get a high multiplier, you won't get much money. Gamblers immediately stop betting. As long as you don't lose. My case is different because I am happy with little.

I also think that players will always want to play, no matter what happens or how many wins or losses they have, because our brains will search for answers in a frenzy of excitement and want more and more. When I realized this was happening, I decided there was absolutely no point in chasing after games. Ultimately, winning depends on luck, and luck always decides. Therefore, I will never dwell on these emotions, especially negative ones, because we can gradually destroy ourselves and slide into deep depression.

[crwth]

That's just how greed works. You are already up by a lot, and you still do it. You still want more because you "think" you can win, even though you have done it. There's nothing wrong with the casino, it's built that way and you need to be in control. You cannot blame anything else for your decision to gamble.

Remember about Gambler's Fallacy. It can make you think you can win even when you're losing so much. You are bound to win. But that's not the case. Those near-misses that you hoped it's all psychological plays.

Follow strict bankroll management and you might win.

[Odusko]

In 2022, I learned this the hard way. Back then, I didn’t have something like limit control, and I allowed my instincts and expectations to control my decisions whenever I wanted to place a bet. At that time, I used to think that gambling was easy and that I could win over the casino. But as time went on, I realized I was thinking in the wrong direction: if I kept gambling without quitting, I would keep losing instead of winning, which is what was to be expected

Well you are absolutely right, gambling is especially designed for people like us to pull in psychologically, even if we keep losing it make urge to recover the initial fund while win make the desire to keep making more profit. One of my friend make a huge profit from gambling but when he want to buy his desired things but he need some small amount of money to buy it even after winning that's why he keep gambling to make that small money later lose all of winning money. That's the reality of a gambler

[Agbe]

That's just how the human brain is wired, greed is like a default setting in humans but that doesn't mean that it cannot be controlled. It is not a universal rule that everytime a gambler wins that the profits would go back into the game, it is a choice for the gambler to either continue or stop. Overtime i always make a conscious effort of withdrawing a large percentage of the profit that I made and stake the little portion left.

[Nothingtodo]

We usually accept victory with great joy and defeat with great regret mentally. We never get bored after winning and we become eager to win more after winning. That is why our mind can never achieve perfection in winning.
But when we lose, we feel regret because our mind expresses the feelings as if we have lost something. The pain of our defeat lingers for a long time, but the joy of victory does not stay in our mind for long, which is why we remember the defeat and forget the victory very easily.

It depends on the gambler. Someone have their own(or even someone`s, doesn`t matter) strategy and gamble using it. It means that they have their rules of making bets and limits if something goes wrong. Someone has "prize goals" and stops the game when reach it. As for me - it is the main part of gamblers but we don`t hear about them. They don`t have problems with gambling, they don`t win jackpot.
But there are gamblers, who can`t control themselves - they continue the game mostly until the lose everything they have. I don`t understand it and i don`t know why it is so, but it is so.
PS. Sometimes, very rare, someone of such gamblers wins jackpot.

Reckless gambling- that’s all I see.
And this happens a lot in slots because that’s where it is easiest to to continue gambling and hardest to stop.
If we can have a plan before gambling, we would go in knowing that we have to hold ourselves accountable but where accountability is missing quitting becomes a hassle unless hit by a loss.
